Abstract

An electrical connector and a cable grounding structure thereof are disclosed. A grounding structure is bridged between a connection body of the electrical connector and each cable, and includes a bridging portion, at least one clamping portion, at least one docking portion, and an elastic portion. The clamping portion is disposed on the bridging portion for clamping a covering layer of each cable, and the docking portion is extended from the bridging portion toward the connection body and electrically connected to connection body, and the elastic portion is attached and pressed against the covering layer of each cable, so as to provide good grounding contact and prevent the issue of skewing the cables and other factors that affects the soldering yield.
